2 Series at a Glance for Kid-O-Deo About this Series: Hear ye! Hear ye! The King is looking for brave kids to undertake a perilous quest. It won t be easy, but God, the King, will give you everything you need to charge fearlessly into this adventure. Come and train for God s great quest: living for him! Memory Verse: Ephesians 6:10-11 Finally, let the Lord make you strong. Depend on His mighty power. Put on all of God s armor. Weekly Overview: Lesson: Topic: Big Idea: Lesson 1: April 7/8 Lesson 2: April 14/15 : Lesson 4: April 28/29 Lesson 5: May 5/6 Lesson 6: May 12/13 The Belt of Truth Deborah: Judges 4 The Armor of Godliness Daniel: Daniel 6 Good News Shoes Philip: Acts 8:4-8, The Shield of Faith Gideon: Judges 7 The Helmet of Salvation Esther and Mordecai: Esther 4-8 The Sword of God s Word Paul: Acts 17:16-34 I can believe what God says is true. I can choose what God says is right. I can share God s good news. I can always trust God. I can follow God. I can learn more about God. 2

3 Series at a Glance for Kid-O-Deo (continued) Lesson 1: The Belt of Truth Deborah, a prophetess and leader of God s people, got a message from God, saying that Israel s army would win a big battle. When Deborah told the leader of the army, he wasn t so sure. He said that he wouldn t go to fight unless Deborah came to the dangerous battlefield along with him. Deborah knew that what God said was true, and she was willing to risk everything to prove it. As King s kids, we can trust that what God says is true just as much as Deborah did! Lesson 2: The Armor of Godliness People were setting traps for Daniel. They watched him day after day, trying to catch him doing something wrong. Daniel s armor protected him, but not the metal kind of armor. Daniel had armor that only God can give! When we choose to do what is right, God can protect us from sinful choices, just like he did for Daniel. : Good News Shoes How fast can you run? In this week s story, Philip does a lot of running. He runs from town to town, and even through the desert to tell everyone the best news ever: Jesus is alive! We can share the same news that Philip did, because Jesus is still alive today. Lesson 4: The Shield of Faith God asked Gideon to do something that didn t make much sense. He told Gideon to defeat a huge army using only torches and trumpets. Gideon didn t have armor or weapons, but he had something way better, the armor of God! Gideon s story shows us how powerful the shield of faith can be when we choose to trust in God. Lesson 5: The Helmet of Salvation Esther had a chance to save all of God s people, but she also might have lost everything. The king of Babylon had decided to get rid of God s people, and no one argued with the king, but Esther, the queen, had to try to convince him to change his mind. Through her story, we can see that when we follow God, his plans are always for the best. Lesson 6: The Sword of God s Word When Paul arrived in a city called Athens, there weren t many people that believed in God. In fact, the people there worshipped idols, or fake gods. Paul didn t fight or threaten them, though. Instead, he used a much more powerful weapon, God s Word! Paul taught the Athenian people about the true God, and his son, Jesus. When we learn more about God every day, we can tell others about him, like Paul did! 3

5 Opening Song 3:00 (Roll when directed) Kid-O-Deo Theme Song Video (Auto advance) Kid-O-Deo Slide Welcome 2:00 Hello Kid-Os! Welcome to Kid-O-Deo! I m super excited to be here with all of you! My name is. If this is your first time in Kid-O-Deo, we are extra happy that you are here with us! Today we will sing about God, hear a Bible story, and get to go Kid- O-Whampus together! Before we get started, let s practice saying the three rules we have here in Kid-O-Deo! Rule #1: When I m talking, you are listening! Everyone put on your listening ears, and on the count of three, let s practice listening! Rule #2: Keep your hands and feet to yourself! Do a little clap and place your hands in your lap! Rule #3: Stay in your spot! Let s take our special glue sticks and put some glue on our spot to help us stay in the right place! Nice job! Kid-Os, those rules are very important because they help us remember to listen and be respectful to others, so that we can all learn a lot and have fun! Value :30 Kid-Os, today is a big day. We re going to learn a lot! Did you know that you can learn more about God every day? It s true! Can you repeat that after me? I can, I CAN LEARN, more about God, MORE ABOUT GOD, every day! EVERY DAY! 5

6 Worship 3:00 Awesome! Kid-Os, I hope you choose to learn about God every day. God is so good, and I hope everyone learns about him! Did you know that we can tell others about Jesus? Let s sing a song about that now. Song 1: Shout (Auto advance) Series Title Slide: Bible Adventure 5:00 Singing with you is so much fun! Kid-Os, listen closely for a moment. Royal Trumpet SFX Kid-Os, that is our Royal Trumpet! Every time you hear that sound, it means we re moving on to a new part of our lesson. Now that we ve heard the first trumpet blast, let s get started with our Bible Adventure! Bible Adventure Jingle Going on a Bible Adventure is awesome, but something is missing. What do we really, really need for a Bible Adventure? A BIBLE! Do This: Show kids the Bible. Right! We need a Bible for our Bible Adventure! Kid-Os, I have an important question for you. Are the stories in the Bible real or pretend? REAL! Yes! What we read about in the Bible really, truly happened. Do This: Get the Bible storybook out and sit down in the chair. This story I m going to tell you comes from the Bible, but we use this storybook because the pictures help us imagine what it might have looked like back when the Bible was written. The pictures you see in here are the same as the ones on the screen. Let s get started! Do This: Have kids help you turn the pages on the screen with an exaggerated arm wave. 6

7 Picture 1: Philip in Samaria There was once a man named Philip. He was a follower of Jesus. Philip loved God and traveled all over to tell people about him. Philip taught people about Jesus in a place called Samaria. He even helped sick people get better there. Because of what Philip was doing and saying, there was a lot of joy in Samaria! Picture 2: Ethiopian official in chariot When Philip was traveling to the next place, he saw an important official who worked for a queen. The official was reading about God, so Philip asked the official if he understood what he was reading. The man said, No, I need someone to explain it to me. Picture 3: Philip and official in chariot, talking The official invited Philip to sit in his chariot. He sat with the man and as they traveled, Philip helped the official understand more about what he was reading. Philip told the man the good news about Jesus. Picture 4: Philip baptizing the official A little further up the road, they saw some water. The official said, Look! Here is water! Why shouldn t I be baptized? Baptism is a way for people to show that they want to follow Jesus with their whole lives. Philip and the official got out of the chariot and into the water. Philip baptized the official, and then man left, full of joy! After that, Philip went to tell people about God in many other towns. Series Title Slide: How cool was that?! Kid-Os, because Philip told the official about Jesus, the man s whole life changed. He believed in Jesus and was baptized! Philip went many places to tell everyone about Jesus and because of that, they, too, were able to learn about and believe in God. We re done with our Bible Adventure, so let s see what s next. 7

8 Royal Trumpet SFX Kid-Os, this trumpet blast means it s time for our Memory Verse! Memory Verse 3:00 (auto advance) Memory Verse Jingle (Auto advance Memory Verse) Ephesians 6:10 11 Finally, let the Lord make you strong. Depend on His mighty power. Put on all of God s armor. Here in Kid-O-Deo, we practice a memory verse because knowing words that are in the Bible helps us learn things about God! Kid-Os, let s all stand up on our feet and practice our Memory Verse together! Do This: Practice the verse with the Kid-Os 2-3 times. Great job practicing your Memory Verse, Kid-Os! Our verse tells us to put on all of God s armor. We ll learn about a piece of God s armor soon! Worship 3:00 But first, stay standing! We might not travel all over the world, but we all can all tell someone about Jesus. Let s sing a song about that right now! Song 2: Go (Auto advance) Series Title Slide: Application 5:00 I love singing with you, Kid-Os! Please sit down. Kid-Os, our Bible memory verse says that we should put on all of God s armor. Armor is something people can use to protect themselves like a shield or a helmet. 8

9 Image: pile of armor But we are not really talking about putting on a real helmet or holding up a big shield. God s armor is different than other armor, because we can t see or feel most of it. God s armor is actually the tools that God has given us to help us make wise choices and live the best way. Series Title Slide: So far, we have talked about the Belt of Truth and the Armor of Godliness. Today we re talking about the Good News Shoes. The Good News Shoes are an important piece of God s armor that can help us tell others about Jesus. Just like Philip told many people all over the world about Jesus, we can tell people about Jesus too! We ll talk more about that in a minute, but first, I need your help here, Kid-Os. Do This: Show the pile of shoes to the Kid-Os. I have this big pile of shoes. Each of these shoes can be worn for different reasons and to do different things. Do This: One-by-one, show the shoes to the Kid-Os. You can choose to go in any order. Repeat the following pattern for each shoe you show the Kid-Os. Ok Kid-Os, here is our first shoe. What is this shoe called? Raise your hand if you wear shoes like this. Now, where and why do people wear this kind of shoe? What s good about this kind of shoe? Do This: Call on Kid-Os whose hands are raised. Repeat their answers so everyone knows what was said. Know This: An example of how this could go is: These are flip flops. I can wear them to the beach. That way, it doesn t matter if I get sand in my shoes, because it will fall right off! Nice job, Kid-Os. I can t believe there are so many different types of shoes! We usually put shoes on our feet when we re going somewhere. So every time you put your shoes on, remember that just like Philip, you can share the good news about Jesus! There are many people you can talk to about Jesus. Image: Kid-O and elderly woman You could talk to your grandma about Jesus! 9

10 Image: 2 Kid-Os You could share the good news about Jesus with a friend. Image: Kid-O with middle-aged man You could tell your uncle the story you just heard. Image: Kid-Os and teacher You could even tell someone at school or daycare what you ve learned about Jesus. Series Title Slide: When you tell people about Jesus, you are wearing the Good News Shoes! Royal Trumpet SFX Big Idea 2:00 (auto advance) Big Idea Jingle The Royal Trumpet brought us to our Big Idea! Our Big Idea helps us remember and think more about what we have been learning today. To help us learn it, our friend Ranger Ron is going to come onto our screens! Let s say Hi Ranger Ron! Know This: The Big Idea is, I can share God s good news. Big Idea Video (Auto advance) Series Title Slide: 10

11 Thank you, Ranger Ron! Kid-Os, like Ranger Ron reminded us, each one of us can share God s good news! Each one of us can put on Good News Shoes and live God s way! Royal Trumpet SFX Stay standing! It s time for Kid-O-Whampus! Kid-O-Whampus 2:00 (auto advance) Kid-O-Whampus: Shoes Prayer 2:00 That was so much fun! You can all sit down. Auto advance Let s Pray Now it s time to talk to God. Do you know what we call it when we talk to God? PRAYER. That s right, we call talking to God praying. God is the best friend we could ever have, and he loves it when we talk to him. God will always listen when you pray, because he created you and he loves you. You can pray anytime and anywhere, but here in Kid-O-Deo we fold our hands in our laps and close our eyes, to help us only think about the words we are saying to God. If you want, you can repeat the words of this prayer after me. Dear God, we love you. Thank you for loving us. Thank you for giving us Good News Shoes! Amen. Kid-O-Deo Slide It s been awesome spending time with you, Kid-Os. Now it s time for you to go back to your classrooms where you will get into groups with your leader and other Kid-Os, have a snack, and do a fun activity. See you later! 11
